Suppose that the foci of the ellipse `(x^2)/9+(y^2)/5=1` are `(f_1,0)a n d(f_2,0)` where `f_1>0a n df_2<0.` Let `P_1a n dP_2` be two parabolas with a common vertex at (0, 0) and with foci at `(f_1 .0)a n d` (2f_2 , 0), respectively. Let`T_1` be a tangent to `P_1` which passes through `(2f_2,0)` and `T_2` be a tangents to `P_2` which passes through `(f_1,0)` . If `m_1` is the slope of `T_1` and `m_2` is the slope of `T_2,` then the value of `(1/(m1 2)+m2 2)` is
